　　You’re probably familiar with bookmobiles—buses or vans filled with library books that serve communities with no libraries of their own—but how about a biblioburro?

　　Luis Soriano，a primary school teacher in Colombia，is putting a twist (转变) on the traditional mobile library in his native country，where children in remote

　　villages have little access to schools or textbooks.Many of the children are the illiterate，as are their parents.Because schools are often many miles away and the children are unable to complete their homework，they often drop out before they reach high school.

　　Soriano hopes that he and his donkeys can change all that.Twice a week，he loads up two donkeys with 120 children’s books and sets off on one of the animals’ back.He travels for about four hours to reach his destination，where dozens of children are waiting eagerly to see Soriano’s selection of books.

　　Even though Soriano’s journey to each village is long，he takes the time at each location to share a lesson with the children，to help them with homework assignments，and to give them the opportunity to choose some books to borrow.Soriano’s biblioburro travels between 15 different communities，so his rare arrival is an occasion for joy and excitement for the village children.

　　“You can just see that the kids are excited when they see the biblioburro coming.It makes them happy that he continues to come，”

　　Dairo Holguin，whose children are part of Soriano’s program，told CNN.“For us，his program complements (补充) what the children learn in school.”

　　Soriano

　　has

　　traveled

　　about

　　4,000

　　hours

　　on donkey back since beginning the program twenty years ago.Despite the difficulties of traveling the dangerous Colombian regions，Soriano has no plans to stop the program anytime soon.He believes that the books he provides to the children can serve as a lifeline (救生索) to raise them from poverty.In his eyes，the power of literature is life-changing.

　　A．don’t know how to read or write

　　D．know little about Soriano’s program

　　2．How does Soriano take his books to the children in remote villages?

　　A．By bus.

　　B．On foot.

　　C．On donkey’s back.

　　D．By van.

　　3．What does Soriano do to help the village children?

　　A．Give the books to them for free.

　　B．Set up libraries in the poor areas.

　　C．Call on people to help them.

　　D．Share lessons with them.

　　4．What does Holguin think about Soriano and his program?

　　A．The children are merely curious about his vehicle.

　　B．The children learn more through his biblioburro.

　　C．His program helps the children finish their schooling.

　　D．The biblioburro is big enough for the children.

　　课时作业(四十二)

　　.单项填空

　　1．解析：　考查with的复合结构。With the college entrance examination drawing near是with的复合结构，the college entrance examination与draw near之间是主动关系，该结构的意思是“随着高考的临近”。

　　答案：　C

　　2．解析：　考查虚拟语气。recommend意为“建议”，宾语从句的谓语常用“(should)＋动词原形”。

　　答案：　C

　　3．解析：　考查非谓语动词。根据语意可知， follow和herself之间是动宾关系，因此用动词的过去分词形式作宾语补足语。注意：found后不是句子，A、D两项可直接排除。

　　答案：　B

　　4．解析：　考查动词词义辨析。attribute归因于；contribute贡献，促成，导致；stimulate刺激；distribute分布，分配。句意为：这位老人的身体本来有望好转，但是恶劣的天气加重了他的感冒。

　　答案：　B

　　5．解析：　句意为：——要是我们当时更小心点事故也许就不会发生了。——可我们当时并不小心。上句是对己发生事情的一种虚拟，下句由at that time可知是陈述过去的事实。

　　答案：　D

　　6．解析：　句意为：四月，成千上万的度假者由于受到火山灰的影响，滞留国外。本题考查非谓语动词作表语。主语holidaymakers与stick间为被动关系，排除A、D两项；remain＋过去分词，表示状态；remain＋to be done表示将来。综上所述，答案为B项。

　　答案：　B

　　7．解析：　remind sb.to do sth.提醒某人做某事，句中用了它的被动式，C项意为“允许”，意义不当；A、D两项不能接to do作宾补或主补。

　　答案：　B

　　8．解析：　exposure to暴露；contact with和……接触；experiment on试验；exhibition of展览。根据句意应该是“长时间暴晒(exposure to)在太阳下可能会导致皮肤癌”。

　　答案：　C

　　9．解析：　propose提议，建议，后面的宾语从句应该用虚拟语气，句中谓语动词用“should＋动词原形”，should可以省略。

　　答案：　A

　　10．解析：　take in欺骗；take up占据，开始从事；take down记下，写下，拆除；take out带某人出去，切除。根据句意“愚人节那天，你应该小心不要被骗”，可知D项正确。

　　答案：　D

　　11．解析：　句意为：我并不相信鬼神；即使如此，我也不愿夜里一个人呆在那个房间里。even so即使如此，即使这样；even though/if即使，虽然；even as正当。

　　答案：　A

　　12．解析：　后句意为：我将请摄影师把那张照片放大。enlarge放大，符合句意。improve增进；reduce减少；appreciate鉴赏，赏识，均不合题意。

　　答案：　C

　　13．解析：　句意为：你如何看待这件事情。它不仅使人们意识到世界上还有人挨饿，而且能筹集到钱帮助那些贫穷的孩子们。awareness“意识”符合句意。

　　答案：　A

　　14．解析：　句意为：她经历了很多事情，因此她确实知道如何对付这样的一个人。go through经历，符合句意。get through通过，完成；go by(时间)过去，消逝；go into进入，均与句意不符。

　　答案：　A

　　15．解析：　句意为：在开工之前，我要建筑商给我估算一下房顶的维修费用。assessment(为征税对人的财产所做的)估价；estimate估计，评估；assumption假定，设想；evaluation评估，评价。

　　答案：　B

　　Ⅱ.完形填空

　　[语篇解读]　一个对未来充满无限憧憬的年轻芭蕾舞女演员在别人的敷衍塞责中过起了平平淡淡的生活，多年之后她才明白了事情的真相。时光无法倒流，这究竟是谁的过错呢？

　　1．解析：　根据下文她询问那位芭蕾大师可知，她想当一名出色的芭蕾舞女演员，但是却想通过别人的肯定来“确信(be sure about)”自己拥有这方面的才能。

　　答案：　D
